Connection
Feeling and being connected to others is fundamentally important to a person’s wellbeing. As a result of the social distancing measures implemented to help slow the spread of COVID-19, we have seen a growing risk of social isolation, particularly for vulnerable members of our community. Finding new ways to maintain connection and keep people engaged during this time is critical and everyone has a role to play.
Don’t forget to touch base
Do you know someone who lives alone or might be at risk of social isolation? Consider taking a moment once a week to give them a quick call to make sure they are okay and share your experiences. A few moments of connection can make a big difference.
